Defining the Valid Predefined Parameter Values for a Price Item or Price Item Bundle

A predefined parameter may have hundreds of values defined in the system. But, there might be situations when only certain predefined parameter values are applicable for a price item or price item bundle while defining its pricing. In such case, you can define a set of valid predefined parameter values for a price item or price item bundle. For example, the Return Code parameter has the following predefined parameter values:

Parameter Value Description
AC01 Account Identifier Incorrect (i.e. invalid IBAN)
AC04 Account Closed
AC06 Account Blocked
AG01 Direct Debit Forbidden for Regulatory Reasons
AG02 Operation/Transaction Code Incorrect
AM04 Insufficient Funds
AM05 Duplicate Collection
MD01 Unauthorized Transaction
MD06 Disputed Authorized Transaction

If only the MD01 and MD06 predefined parameter values are applicable for the SEPA Debit Refund (SEPADRF) price item, you can define MD01 and MD06 as the valid predefined parameter values for the SEPADRF price item. In such case, the system will allow you to define the pricing for the SEPADRF price item only using the MD01 or MD06 parameter value. However, if all the above listed predefined parameter values are applicable for the SEPA Direct Debit Return (SEPADDR) price item, you must not define the valid predefined parameter values for the SEPADDR price item. In such case, the system will allow you to define the pricing for the SEPADDR price item using any of the above listed parameter value.

Another example, the Health Coverage Class parameter has the following predefined parameter values:

Parameter Value Description
MEDICAL Medical
DENTAL Dental
VISION Vision

If only the MEDICAL and DENTAL predefined parameter values are applicable for the Claim Based Fees (CLBDFS) price item, you can define MEDICAL and DENTAL as the valid predefined parameter values for the CLBDFS price item. In such case, the system will allow you to define the pricing for the CLBDFS price item only using the MEDICAL or DENTAL parameter value. However, if all the above listed predefined parameter values are applicable for the Claim Based Fees (CLBDFS) price item, you must not define the valid predefined parameter values for the CLBDFS price item. In such case, the system will allow you to define the pricing for the CLBDFS price item using any of the above listed parameter value.

Prerequisites

To define the valid predefined parameter values for a price item or price item bundle, you should have:

  • Predefined values defined for the parameter which is associated with the price item or price item bundle

  • Price items or price item bundles associated with the division to which the user (i.e. who is performing this action) belongs

Procedure

To define the valid predefined parameter values for a price item or price item bundle:

  1. Click the Parameters or Show All link in the Section pane when you are defining, editing, or copying a price item or price item bundle.
    The Parameters section appears.
  2. Click the Add (The Add Icon) icon in the Parameter column corresponding to the predefined parameter which is associated with the price item or price item bundle.

    The following field appears in a grid:

    Field Name Field Description Mandatory (Yes or No)
    Parameter Value Used to indicate the predefined parameter value which you can use for the price item or price item bundle while defining the pricing.
    Note:

    The Search (The Search Icon) icon appears corresponding to the Parameter Value field. On clicking the Search icon, the Predefined Parameter Value Search window appears.

    On specifying the valid predefined parameter value for a price item or price item bundle, the description of the predefined parameter value appears corresponding to the Parameter Value field.

    		 Yes (Conditional)
    Note: This field is required when you are defining the valid predefined parameter values for the price item or price item bundle.
  3. Enter a predefined parameter value which is valid for the price item or price item bundle while defining its pricing.
  4. If you want to define more than one valid predefined parameter value for the price item or price item bundle, click the Add (The Add Icon) icon and then repeat step 3.
    Note: However, if you want to remove a valid predefined parameter value from the price item or price item bundle, click the Delete (The Delete Icon) icon corresponding to the parameter value. You can remove a valid predefined parameter value from the price item or price item bundle when the parameter value is not yet used for defining the price item pricing.
  5. Click Save.
    The valid predefined parameter values are defined for the price item or price item bundle.
